Process for Homeowners to Provide Maintenance to City-owned Trees At Property Owner Expense

Due to severe budget reductions, the City of Modesto, Community Forestry Division has limited resources
to provide services to City-owned trees. If you prefer more immediate service, you can contract services
through approved vendors.

**Please note: any service contracted by the homeowner must be approved by the City prior to service and
will be the financial responsibility of the homeowner.

If the homeowner intends to replant a tree with the same species that has been removed
there is no need to get prior approval.

If the homeowner wants to replace a tree with an alternate species, the tree must be approved by
City staff. Tree species will be dependent on property location and size. Contact the Community
Forestry Division at (209) 342-2249 to determine a list of approved trees for your site.

For more information on the Forestry Division, please
call (209) 342-2249.
